Anonymous Bloggers

The name in my profile is my real name. You can look it up in the Lakewood phone book, and call me. Therefore, I have to stand behind anything I say, and not say anything I may end up being ashamed of or regretting. In fact, excerpts from this blog have already been distributed beyond my expectations. This wasn't because of the quality of my writing or my wide readership (I get about 10 - 15 hits per day) but because my name was attached. My name isn't worth much, but it does get the attention of the people who know/knew me.Other bloggers remain anonymous. There are a few who take advantage of their anonymity to harm others. Unorthodox-Jew is an example of one of these. Now, let me make this perfectly clear: child abuse of any sort is vile and reprehensible. But, so is this cowardly character assassination, which convicts a person before his trial.David Framowitz, right or wrong, at least put his reputation on the line to claim what he claims is his due. Unorthodox-Jew and those of his ilk hide behind Blogspot.com and think of themselves as heroes. They are nothing but zeros.
